Career-related website


Since I started studying journalism here in college, teachers use to vainglory the investigation journalism and how much it impact in the life of all people. I think the objective of the Universidad de Chile is to have a lot of journalists working of these investigation agencies, "unmasking the powerful”.

They always mention Ciper Chile as the perfect example of an investigation agency, made to unveil scandals of corruption and crimes made by the higher people of politics, economy and religion.

In my personal opinion, I think the editorial line of Ciper Chile is focused in bring conspirational material for people to read, making sensationalistic headlines to bring more readers to the website, similar to InfoWars in United States.

I’m not arguing about the quality of the research, but the way Ciper write their articles could be more partial. But after all, we can’t ignore the impact in society and journalism Ciper Chile makes every time they publish an investigation, headlining in other medias all around the world.

Free topic - My little old lady


I'm going to talk about a little old lady who's living the last days of her life with us.

Aisha is a wonderful Cocker Spaniel who came home in late 2004. She was only nine months old when she arrived, full of energy and destruction (the 'not so bad' kind of destruction).

She liked to play and mess around with the other dog we had in that days, Abaris, a senior black Cocker who was very moody and really pissed off when Aisha bited her just for fun. It was really funny seeing how Abaris struggled a lot just to climb a single stair and Aisha jumped it in one second. Abaris passed away two years after Aisha came home.

Now Aisha have 13 years old and it’s showing her age, She gets sick easilly and she's losing her speed gradually. In 2016 christmas Copito arrived, a three months old Poodle who was a gift for my little cousins, now is him who mess out with the old Aisha and drives her crazy, making a really funny “passing of the torch”, teaching us how life and time works.

How do I start.

Let’s start analizyng his eyes. Pure concentration and determination. He’s putting all his life to mantain that perfect balance between his head and the cup. Just seeing his face we can know he won’t forgive himself if the cup falls down and breaks in thousand pieces.

¿Do we talk about that cup? Fine chinese porcelain crafted by the most dedicated craftmans in the other side of the world. A meticulous work months in the making, added to the stainless steel spoon forged by the flames of a nordic bonfire, bring justice to the majestic pedigree of our imponent Welsh Corgi.

There are some pictures around the globe capable of telling you a story about epic prowess, but none of them like this epic staging by our almighty dog. This is a legend that's going to be told from generations to generations. ¡Keep balancing my good Corgi!

My favourite piece of technology

By far my favourite piece of technology is my gaming computer.

I remember as a child being fascinated about the different pieces that make a computer. There was times when I even opened my mother laptop with a screwdriver just to look what components were inside it. 

In another ocassion I spoiled my own computer because I took out an essential piece of hardware that I never was able to put it back in.

Now that I’m grown up and understand the functioning of a computer, I’m able to build and fix some PC’s. Last year I spent nearly $600.000 to update my gaming rig with modern hardware. Maybe it’s an expensive hobbie or even it's not a fun one, but I enjoy messing up with computer and laptops just to know how they works.
